Jeff's Hard Work

The past couple of weekends. We have been working on cleaning up our yard and taking out some old tree stumps and planting our small garden... here are some of the pictures of our work...











This was a apple tree that fell down before we had the house.. we finally got the stump out. Jeff
dug it out with just the shovel.. well he broke the first one, we had to go buy a new one then.. Tietjen is standing in the hole about chest level on him...



















This is the Pine tree that we cut down last spring.. we rented the stump grinder and after 2 1/2 hours we got it down to ground level.. Tietjen loved the sawdust (with his trains)

Tietjen Rides a BIKE

Yesterday, we spent the day at my sister Kimberly's home in Pocatello. They have a bike with training wheels and Tietjen wanted to try riding it. He did so good as you will see in the video. He did have to shift his weight to reach the pedel on the down push. He is getting to be such a big boy. I guess we know what his next birthday present will be.... ENJOY!!
